vfs: getname() / putname() used by VMware drivers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Jeff,

I just compiled the VMware kernel modules 9.4.6-1770165
on kernel 3.14.18 (upgrading from 3.4.101).

The functions getname() and putname() are both used
by the "vmblock" and "vmsync" module.

Any chance to revert 8e377d15078a501c4da98471f56396343c407d92
---------------------------------------
vfs: unexport getname and putname symbols

I see no callers in module code.
---------------------------------------

since there are callers to those functions?

Otherwise the VMware code needs to be changed downstream.
For now I've reverted the commit in question locally.

Cheers,
Thomas
